    Just going to put it out there that your stock list isn't ideal. 6+ of each Cory, Oto and Rainbowfish species as they are schooling or shoaling fish. Very amazing tank otherwise!

    Thank you. The rainbow fish and sterbai are survivors from a tank crash 2 years ago. I'm looking to add more corys and ottos. Best!

    I'm thinking of doing a low tech tank for myself...budgetary constraints!!! I have an empty 5 ft tank sitting in my room...and a similar setup would be ideal.

    How do you get the water to 27C without chiller?

    Thanks

    Hi,
